Forget planking or eating cinnamon, stepping over an invisible box is the latest craze taking social media by storm - can you do it?
It may look easy at first, but try it yourself and you’ll quickly find that it’s not. Not easy at all.
The craze was originally kicked-off back in August by 18-year-old American student Dontez Hines who said: "I was just messing around one day and asked my buddy to record me doing it and it turned out to be pretty close to perfect so I decided to post it," he said.
"Ever since then it’s gotten a lot of attention."

The challenge is hitting the top of social media posts again this week thanks to Ariel Olivar, the cheerleader who put her on spin on it.

Speaking to the Houston Chronicle Ariel said it was hard to explain how it was done.
"It’s hard to explain, I just keep the leg in the same exact spot. It is actually kind of challenging keeping it there.
"The technique…is to bring the other leg higher than the other as if you are actually stepping over a box."
Her video has since gone viral and inspired a number of other people to take on the invisible box challenge!
